Review №1

Applied with them and their parent company Masis. Had 4 rounds of calls/interviews and after I was told I would hear back from them on whether or not I would receive the job, two weeks went by without even a courtesy email saying I didnt get it. They seem like nice people but clearly there is a huge disconnect.

They were very helpful for me! They took the time to meet with me individually and get to know me and my background. I constantly was receiving opportunities and updates from them. The recruiters who worked with me really worked hard to get me a good job, and they did! They believed in me and gave me great suggestions for interviewing, always making sure I was prepared. I highly recommend working with them!

Meh. So a lot of recruiting/employment agencies use ads that are basically fishing. The position looks really good, so a lot of talented people apply, and then they bring you in and bait & switch. But hey, if they have other good positions, its not a huge deal. I answered one of those ads and they had me come in for a meeting. Everyone I dealt with was VERY friendly, so I tacked on an extra star for that. Otherwise, my experience was a total waste of time.I met with a couple people, one of whom had some good advice for rearranging my resume. They then said I would never get a position in the field that I have an advanced degree and some experience in. Odd. They then present me with a tangentially related position that pays about 40,000 less than Im looking for (not a typo). I humor them, and after the meeting send an email asking if they thought the position they showed me would have enough of the traits Im looking for in a position. They never wrote back. Get used to variations on that phrase.I called several days later to check-in, they said they would call me soon with an opportunity. They never called back. A week later I called in again, they said to email them job postings from their site I was interested in. So I did. They never wrote back. A couple weeks later I called, they said the same thing, I did the same thing...they never wrote back.My advice: If youre desperate for anything, and will take the first position they offer you, do it. Otherwise youll probably never hear back from them.

They hire some real vindictive young men out of college with terrible people skills (possibly as a favor to someone). The more seasoned experts are great but they better shape up and follow through or at very least respond back if someone follows up if they can or take the time to tell them they cannot follow up with everyone. Had a terrible experience after having a very pleasant and civil conversation with the relationship manager noticed the young man was not listed as an employee due to unprofessional behavior... Ways to go still! Seems like they held a grudge against me as I applied numerous times to give them multiple chances but never heard back... I guess they blacklisted me...

I have applied to many basic administrative positions through Fanning Personnel on Indeed. I have noticed that one of their recruiters is always checking my application through indeed but yet I never receive any call or correspondence regarding the positions. I call yesterday (1/11/17) to check on the status of my applications and the receptionist tells me that the recruiter is in a meeting and will call me later. I call again today (1/12/17) and the receptionist bluntly tells me that she will forward my resume to the recruiter and hangs up.Overall, I am really disappointed with the lack of professionalism portrayed by this staffing agency. In times of need, these businesses exist to help qualified candidates, that are looking for a change, find a position that is mutually beneficial. I am more than qualified for all the positions Ive applied for through Fanning Personnel (I have 3 years admin experience, 6 years reception & 6+ years in customer service/hospitality) and yet have not even been contacted back. At the very least, I expect the recruiter to be in touch with all applicants to get to know them better. I have met with 8 other recruiting agencies in the Greater Boston area and they at least meet with you to discuss your background and what youre looking for.
